Working with Kaplan depends on who you are speaking with. They where going to remove old drive and install a new driveway. We signed the contract November 25 and scheduled the job for spring 2026. Fist the brick trim was done and looked bad. Kaplan came out and fixed it. Then as the summer went on the bricks…
Santiago and his team just removed and replaced my existing driveway and did an excellent job. I would reccomend Kaplan Paving for paving work.
Both the removal and installation teams (Samuel & Santiago) were professional and did a great job.
Kaplan Paving did an amazing job! From start to finish, Casey kept me informed and at ease with the project. He listened to what I wanted, addressed positives and negatives of my vision, and set clear expectations for the process. The work was completed quickly and very neatly. In addition to the repaving of the…
We hired Kaplan to pave my parents' driveway, and I'll be honest, the sales pitch was great. They were professional, the quote was fair, and the crew seemed to know what they were doing. They asked us to leave a Google review almost right away, and my mom did, because at that point everything looked fine. The…
Billy the salesman was very helpful in assisting us with deciding what the best type of driveway that would fit our budget. He gave us the cost of all our options so we could make an informed decision. Luis and his crew were very polite and courteous. They asked me questions throughout the process to ensure our…
Luis and his team successfully completed the installation of a new asphalt driveway with outstanding efficiency and professionalism. Comprising six members, the crew demonstrated strong accountability and effective coordination throughout the project. The installation was executed promptly, with the team arriving at…
Our experience of working with Kaplan especially Brenda was amazing! Their quality of work and communication is top tier! I highly recommend them.
Salesman, Renso Meucci, explained the process well and was very approachable with my questions. Edgar, Office Manager, was receptive to my calls regarding scheduling! The paving crew was efficient and the job looks perfect.
Kaplan replaced our old driveway and did a perfect job. From beginning to end, everyone I came into contact with at Kaplan was very professional, helpful and friendly. From Mark in Sales, Brenda, Cynthia, Katie in the office to all the great guys that removed the old driveway and installed the new one like Luis…
Samuel and his team did a realy awesome job getting my driveway replaced. The whole Kaplan team was awesome every step of the way. Great communication and the pricing was very competitive.
Kaplan did a great job with great service. A special thank you to Tricia who was an amazing help throughout our process. I highly recommend Kaplan for your next project.
Communicated with Tricia regarding changes that needed to be made prior to prep and paving. Tricia was very patient and went above and beyond to resolve my concerns. If the finished product is any were near as good as Tricia’s customer there will be another 5 star review. Drive is finished and couldn’t be happier.…
Very happy with our new driveway! We live in Deerfield, and our driveway was probably the oldest one in town... We called Kaplan and Tricia oversaw flawlessly the entire process, from start to finish. It is just amazing how a new driveway gives a completely different look to your house. And Kaplan did an excellent job- thank you, guys!
Kaplan Paving has been our vendor of choice in our HOA for several years now. I would have to say they have been nothing short of outstanding. Everyone has been extremely professional and a pleasure to work with. Becky and Jenny have been the best at taking care of our projects start to finish making them very…
We were impressed with the service and level of communication with Kaplan from the initial estimate to the final step of paving. This was a complete tear-out and replacement of a large driveway. We appreciated that Kaplan handled the applications for two permits.
Arturo and his crew did an amazing job on my driveway. In addition to it being beautiful and everything that I was hoping for, the crew had to work around dog walkers and baby strollers since people were insisting on walking on the sidewalk where they were working. They were patient, polite and professional.
Santiago and Samuel's crews were very professional and detailed. Very pleased with the results
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-Star Review for Kaplan Paving! I can’t say enough good things about the team at Kaplan Paving! They did an outstanding job today with the excavation and, most importantly, took the time to make sure the proper base was installed and prepared correctly. Their attention to detail and quality of work really…
Thanks Tricia and the Kaplan team for your great customer service and taking care of my damaged new driveway! You all rock!
The men that came out were friendly and professional. Answered any questions. They did an AMAZING job
Everything went famously well with Kaplan Paving. A few months after installation, however, we began noticing some cracking that seemed well beyond what we would consider normal. What really defines a company isn’t how it handles things when everything goes perfectly—it’s how it responds when there’s a problem and…
Our team leader put together Kaplan Paving to repave 6 homes in our neighborhood. The more home that sign up greater the discount Kaplan would of given us. Kaplan was great with informing us through emails every step of the way. On the day our driveways were finally paved the crew from Kaplan Paving Company were…
Mark was great to work with on the initial quote, very responsive to my questions a few days later and working the scheduler Tricia Nevarez was a pleasure even though I probably called more than most due to a timeline crunch for completion for a party at my house.
Patricia Nevarez was especially helpful throughout the entire process, promptly addressing all of our questions and concerns. The Luis’ crew was on time, very friendly, and worked quickly and efficiently.
Billy Dehn came by to provide an estimate and explained everything in detail. He was pleasant, thorough, and professional. When I had a few follow-up questions the next day, he responded immediately. The pricing was very reasonable, and Beckie in the office was also responsive and a pleasure to work with. We just…
JIM & CREW did an excellent & outstanding job, very personal
Crew #3 Led by Luis and Omar were outstanding. Professional, thorough and extremely kind and cleaned up nicely when the driveway was done. Mark was great to work with, listened to our needs, job well done using Kaplan!!!! We will definitely use them again.
I work at Icon Building Group, and we've had the pleasure of working with Kaplan Paving on several projects. I especially want to recognize Brenda Sanchez, who manages our account. She is incredibly responsive, timely, and always willing to help. Brenda consistently goes above and beyond to make sure everything runs…
Had my asphalt driveway paved in late spring last year. Within a few weeks, cracks began appearing along the edges, and more developed by fall. When I reported it, it took weeks if not months of follow up before anyone came out, and when they finally did, I was told I had probably driven on the edges myself, "we all…
Great communication from start to finish from the sales team to the paving crew. Office staff Meredith & Cynthia were helpful and very responsive to any questions that arose. Crews were friendly and efficient. Jesse, the foreman, made sure we were satisfied with the results before they packed up. Our new driveway…
This review is from my mother: The crew was friendly, professional, and cleaned up well afterwards. The driveway looks marvelous. Thank you!
Josh and his crew did a great job with our driveway. Communication was great throughout. Would definitely recommend!
I work with ICON Building Group and I wanted to mention Brenda Sanchez. She’s our account representative and I wanted to comment on the fact that she is always keeping up to date with the schedule, responding to us in a timely fashion, and always has a great attitude. She has been a pleasure to speak with and work with and I highly recommend their company!
Jim’s Crew did a phenomenal job this morning of removing my old driveway and preparing for the new drive to be installed. They got the work done quickly & properly with no issues or problems, thank you! Jesse and his team came out yesterday to apply the asphalt and finish the driveway. It turned out beautiful. Thank you again for the fantastic job!
Great service. Jesse and his team did very good job. Highly recommend!
Overall a great experience with Kaplan. They rebuilt my entire entryway and pillars with pavers. Also built a retaining wall and a border around driveway. Removed my old brick paver driveway and replaced with new asphalt driveway. Joe helped design and pick out materials. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. Lars…
Jim’s team did a great job!
We cannot say enough about Casey Stolzenburg's attention to the details and challenges of our job. His professional and caring handling of our estimates set up and any questions that would come up showed that he knew what he was doing and paid attention to every aspect. A pleasure to work with and someone I would…
Jim and his crew did an excellent job preparing our driveway for the asphalt layer. They were very easy to work with and cleaned up the site perfectly. I highly recommend Kaplan Paving and Jim
